Re: A shout out to the Warriors!
Hey everyone… was thinking about this for some odd reason yesterday. I’ve been on this site for just under 25 years and I am far from the elder statesman here. In fact, might not even make the top 10 and there are a lot of other forumites that have come on since and contributed a lot over many many...

Deck chairs on the titanic
While the concept throw the magnets around and try to generate something new , especially through the midfield sounds great, if you don't have the points of difference or they aren't performing or ready then it is a useless exercise which causes more harm than good. As I see it Henry, Clark, Owens a...

Re: Mid season draft
I would go down the path, if they exist, of someone passed over int he draft in last couple years - perhaps for lack of physical development, injury or just weren't ready which has shown performance at a lower level and can get better. No recycled , delisted after 3 season players - not where we are...

Selection and Strategy
I must say when i saw the side on Friday I was puzzled by the selections made and it played out that way on Sunday. Sharman was poor the week before and making him the sub makes no sense. It set him up not to succeed. It is clear we still haven't worked out the type of player who should be the sub, ...

Re: Team Saints V Melbourne
clearly there is specific things which players must improve on at Sandy because after watching Sunday surely Garcia should be in.
Crouch and even clark perhaps due to injury history need to build a fitness base?
Emerg to me should be
Bonner , Sharman, Jones , Paton
Sub either Ross or Collard

Re: Changes for Dees game
Out: Bonner, Sharman, Jones, Collard, Paton, Poo
In: Higgins, Membrey, Clark, Stocker, Garcia, Ross/Crouch
If crouch is fit enough then in and Ross in 2s if needs another week then Ross in
Have option to bring him back as sub also .

Re: RoMa in the ruck
Perhaps the fact our mids are struggling to win clearance and we played a very good midfield has something to do with this tactic. Without Crouch we lack clearance strength so to negate this perhaps this is the tactic which has been used.? I think it has everything to do with it and he is probably ...

Emergency as a carrot perhaps - Heath was solid again at the level. Still learni...

Re: The Blame game
Gone by 2026 - Crouch, Ross, Webster, Campbell, membrey, Wood, You can add Zak Jones to that list "os", maybe Dougal Howard who I expect will be surpassed by Arie Schoenmaker. Question marks also about Matthew Allison, Ryan Byrnes, Brad Hill (same age as Wood) and possibly Jack Hayes, Dan...

Re: Is it the midfield, or our forwards?
mids.- General kicking skills are very poor and slow ball movement mean that the defence gets set and if they give something up it is 40 out on boundary. Aside from Nas, Sinclair and Hill ( who is very good or very poor) we do not have mids who are good kicks, Windy, Ross, Crouch, are hackers, Steel...

Disappointment and passion often are not a good mix. St.kilda supporters are experts at this mixture and nothing good comes of it.

Re: Chasing Weitering
We have cap space available so surely the strategy is to target what we need at the top end. One of those things is a top 5 defender in the league. Howard is not that. Do i think he will come NO , but will it mean Carlton will need to overpay to keep him, YES. Similar for McCluggae which then weaken...
